"Beautifully written, I couldn't put this story down. The characters came alive for me. I cried with one and cheered for the other." ~ Elena Aitken, author

"This was a unique storyline that was clever and well done, go pick up this book!" ~Tarrin Lupo, author

ONCE UPON A TIME…

LADY CATHERINE, a medieval noblewoman has it all: Beauty, wealth, and a handsome, valiant knight whose love for her knows no bounds. Though secretly holding out for a love that would consume her, she acquiesces her fate to wed this knight, a man she loves no more than she could a brother. But a chance meeting with a devastatingly handsome merchant shakes the very foundation of her world, compelling her to act and think in ways she never thought possible.

LOVE CAME BACK TO HAUNT HER…

ERYN REXFORD, a modern-day photographer, has everything many women dream of: Beauty, wealth, a sexy and successful husband, a career she loves, and a beautiful house nestled in a community of beach homes. But passionate love, the one thing she longs for, she learns to live without, until recurring dreams and visions spark memories of a life lived long ago and of a man whose love promises to follow her through time. Eryn recognizes a whisper of that promise in the eyes of a handsome stranger who stays close enough for her to notice, but not close enough for her to remember.

LOVE HAS NO BOUNDARIES…

Two women, born centuries apart, both accept lives of obligation and responsibility; lives without passion, with men who would claim them for their own. Until, that is, a chain of events complicates things in ways they never imagined, all because of one man’s love for a woman…a love that crosses through centuries to find her again.

Real men don't read romance. Now having said that I can say I am a man and, on occasion, have read a romantic story or two. Such is the case with Again.The story surrounds two women separated by centuries yet connected by the unending force of love. (yes, I'm a man who just used the 'L' word) I'm not going to spoil any parts of the storyby doing a running narrative here. You need to read the book to understand that the connection I'm speaking of is more than just one of circumstance.

The author sets the stage for this tale of centuries in the first page which grabbed my interest and did not let go until the story was finished with me. For me, that's what makes a great tale. I didn't finish with it, it finished with me and at the appropriate place, the last page.

Ms. Murdock weaves two tales together using the chapters to define the time periods. Brilliant. I had no problems following the time line and her ability to create the right atmosphere (characters, clothing and speech) in both timelines was flawless. The author uses water (the ocean) as another means to connect the two stories and keep them flowing together until the end. The love scenes were vivid yet tasteful bringing out the emotions of the moment rather than a graphic rendering of the act itself.

Again is a tale of love, jealousy, loyalty and betrayal with some mystery tossed in. (you'll understand the last once you've read the story). All the fixings needed to keep you turning the pages.

I thoroughly enjoyed this book and highly recommend it for both sexes.

Again is an amazing book that brings empowerment to all women! I read this when I was going through some really tough times and it brought me so much strength when I needed it the most. I could not put the book down. It gave me hope that my true love was really out there somewhere in this great big world! I read it TWICE! A must read for all women! You will want to read it AGAIN...and AGAIN!

I have never read anything from this author and was really impressed. She blended two story arcs very seamlessly. I thought the romance was good ,but did not overpower the story. Dare I say it was even a little sexy but without being crude. Great twist in the book, but I won't ruin it. This was a unique storyline that was clever and well done, go pick up this book!

This is a romance set in two periods of time and the story goes back and forth between the historical portion of the story and the modern story. The author developed the main character very well in both the historical story and the modern story. She (in both settings) is likeable and complex. There is a reincarnation theme running through this story - will the couple get another chance together? Will the heroine make the same mistakes again? Are people drawn to each other over and over again throughout time? I also enjoyed seeing the modern marriage of the heroine - her marriage is falling apart, she is not happy but neither her or her husband wants it to end. The dynamics are interesting to read. Additionally, there is a destructive friendship that the heroine (in the modern day portion of the story) has to work her way through - very interesting stuff. I would recommend this story for readers who enjoy modern day fiction with a dash of something added to it. It was an enjoyable and quick read but surprisingly made me think about what if and possibilities of change across time and lifetimes.

I don't normally read novels, especially romance novels. Again interested me because I had heard good reviews about it. I was very quickly enthralled in the book and allowed it to be my treat for each day that it took me to finish it. What I especially liked about Again was the subtle messages that permeated its content from beginning to end. Author Diana Murdock is skilled in describing the nature of love and relationships without being gauche about it. I enjoyed the suspense and the mystery that she wove through the chapters and the sensitivity with which she treated personal feelings. Murdock is a good writer because she allows the characters to develop slowly and clearly. There was consistency in her story and interst-provoking scenarios that kept me returning with anticipation to the book. I especially like the way it ended: with subtlety and finesse. I highly recommend this story and this author.

I bought this book on the strength of the glowing reviews. I'm writing this to refute them.

"Again" wasn't the worst book I've ever read, but that's about all I can really say to recommend it. If you're into a heroine (or heroines, in this case) who spends half the book pondering how horrible her life is while being completely unwilling to make even the slightest effort to change things, then this is the book for you. Myself, I like heroines with a bit of backbone who aren't so boringly passive.

There were two things wrong with this book. First, there wasn't a single character whom I liked, let alone admired. Second, the plot--if you can call it that--meanders aimlessly and never seems to get anywhere.

It's hard to believe an author can take a fascinating subject like reincarnation and turn it into a total yawn, but Diana Murdock manages. When I saw the weird adolescent spelling of the heroine's name (Eryn instead of the usual Erin), I should have realized right then that we weren't on the same page, because I really hate when authors use those kind of immature, soap opera spelling revisions.

Eryn is unhappy because her husband shows no affection or passion, but she's unwilling to leave her marriage because they've been a couple since they were in school. Instead of taking charge of her life, she pants after other men and retreats into inexplicable memories of a past life with her 'twin soul.'

Her past life alter-ego, Lady Catherine, isn't much better. Catherine falls in love with an unsuitable commoner while leading the knight who loves her around by the nose.

The story flips back and forth between the two women without demonstrating much connection between the different lives.Read more ›
